    There are articles out there that show how China doesn't actually pay the tariffs...The U.S. consumer does.
     
  4. I know. It's always the consumer. But he keeps saying it's China. I guess if tariffs get to the point where the imported stuff is too expensive, then China does end up paying by losing that business.

    thats exactly the point... so far China has not slowed down the export to the US because the currency devaluation sort of compensated for the tariff.... so in a way this IS a money transfer to the US gov.

    have trust in Trump... think about all the prez as far back as you want, who else would you want to lead a negotiation like this.... nobody else can do it better.

    God Bless America - the trade war is really a key play in maintaining the US dominance... too bad half the population get brain washed and don't support him.

  7. Oh I'm pretty sure the China problem has been highlighted since at least 2000 from what I recall. I support it, I even understand the economic arguments about why China might pay. But the argument is like why Mexico will pay for the wall. Very annoying
